* He that passeth by , and meddleth with strife belonging not to him , is like one that taketh a dog by the ears . * As a mad man who casteth firebrands , arrows , and death , * So is the man that deceiveth his neighbour , and saith , Am not I in sport ? * Where no wood is , there the fire goeth out : so where there is no talebearer , the strife ceaseth . * As coals are to burning coals , and wood to fire ; so is a contentious man to kindle strife . * The words of a talebearer are as wounds , and they go down into the innermost parts of the belly .
